Wrong Connection
Carrying over the idea of everyday people doing all they can to make a living from the ‘Two Fools' series, director Chiang Wai-kwong brings ‘the fools'–Sun Ma Si-tsang and Tang Kei-chen–together once more for another wonderful farce that also cleverly touches on gender politics. After the first half shows the two stars' silly antics to earn their keep, the film dials up the romance in the second half as Sun Ma Si-tsang's character does a double gender reverse to pose as a woman's rich boyfriend. The film also touches on traditional men's frustrations as employers favour women.
